AMMAN — The spokesman for the Ministry of Agriculture, Lawrence
Al-Majali, said on Wednesday that 437 dunums were affected by the forest fire between the governorates of Jerash and Ajloun, near the village of
Al-Husayniyat.
Preliminary evidence indicates the presence of a human cause
in igniting the fire, noting that about 60 percent of fires are deliberate,
reported Ammon News.
Majali added that the location of the fire led to its
sustainability for a longer period due to its presence in an area where the
slope was at an angle of more than 80 percent, in addition to the fact that
active wind movement led to its transfer from one place to another, as there
were three main fire points in the area.
